If there was a N-by-N array of numbers, and within the array, there were
some numbers that fell between one number and another, I want to
highlight that cell. Since there are only 4 conditional statements,
and I want to search for 10 numbers, must I write a program in EXCEL to
do this? So, for instance, I have a 32x32 array, and within the array,
I want to find numbers between 4+/-0.25, 5+/- 0.25, etc. up to 14
+/0.25. I want to color each range a different color.

For those gifted in EXCEL, must I do this with a program in EXCEL or
with conditional statements of some sort?

Thanks for your consideration.

Regards,
John

Use this in your conditional formatting:

=OR(MOD(A2,1)<0.25,MOD(A2,1)0.75)

I didn't take notice that you want each a different color. If you
wanted each a different color you would need to use coding.

Where would I start if I needed to code this? I have no prior
experience.

Here is some code:
If your values keep changing, you could turn that into an event procedure.

You would need to cycle through the cells in the range one at a time
and then check to see if you need to apply formatting. Something like:

public sub MyFormatter

dim rng as range
dim arrTemp as variant

'this would be a listing of the color codes you want for each number
arrTemp = array(3,6,43,5,13,16,46,30,20,15,25,55,61,14)

For each rng in range("A1:D4")
if (rng.value mod 1 <.25) or (rng.value mod 1 .75)
rng.interior.colorindex = arrTemp(round(rng.value,0)-1)
End if
Next rng

End sub

Press alt F11 to go into the VBE. Go Insert Module. Then paste this
code in the white section. The macro should now be available from the
list in Tools -- macros -- play.

What if 4.25 < x < 4.75 ?

Cheers

I wasuzzled: what color should the cell be painted if value is outside
checked range.
I thought it over, and decided it should not be painted.
